Creating an Address Book entry
A record in Address Book is called an entry. You can create entries on your 
handheld, or you can use Palm™ Desktop software to create entries on your 
computer and then transfer the entries to your handheld with your next HotSync
® 
operation.
Palm Desktop software also has data import capabilities so that you can load 
database files into Address Book on your handheld. 
See“Importing data” in Chapter 3 and Palm Desktop online Help for more 
information.

1.Press the Address Book application button   on the front of your handheld to 
display the Address list.
2.Ta p  N e w.

numeric and e-mail fields). You do not have to use the Graffiti
® capital stroke to 
capitalize the first letter of the name.
4.Use the Next Field Graffiti stroke to move to the First Name field.
TIPYou can also move to any field by tapping it directly.
5.Enter the first name of the person in the First Name field.
